Research
editTanner's research spans multiple fields within high-energy physics, focusing on particle physics and machine learning applications for data analysis. He has contributed to several research projects:
- As a Graduate Research Assistant under Dr. Priscilla Cushman at the University of Minnesota, Tanner is involved with the FAIR-4-HEP SuperCDMS project.[5] His work applies machine learning techniques to improve particle event position reconstruction in detectors, enhancing current methods and addressing limitations in position accuracy.[6]
- During a research internship with the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) Group at CERN under Dr. Jeremiah Mans, Tanner utilized Gaussian Processes to analyze CMS simulation data.
- Previously, as an Undergraduate Research Assistant under Dr. Andrew Furmanski at the University of Minnesota, Tanner worked on simulations of cosmic muons interacting with liquid argon detectors for the Short-Baseline Neutrino Program at Fermilab.
Awards and recognition
editTanner has received multiple honors, including the University of Minnesota's Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program Scholarship and the Presidential Scholarship. He was also a recipient of the NSF Graduate Data Science in Multi-Messenger Astrophysics Trainee fellowship.[7]
Personal life
editTanner enjoys listening to **Steely Dan**, playing the guitar, traveling, and spending time with friends.[8]
